The ultimate power pack

The driveline with Volvo’s 13-litre diesel engine will take you all the way. 420 or 460 bhp in Euro 5 configuration and a massive torque of 2100 or 2300 Nm is perfectly matched by the I-Shift transmission and Volvo’s single reduction rear axle.

Trouble-free maintenanceIn a perspective of life cycle productivity, maintenance and reliability are crucial matters. The B13R is designed for long service intervals and swift and simple maintenance.

Oil change intervals are extended and many critical components are maintenance-free, such as prop shafts, half shafts and rear wheel bearings. In addition, Volvo’s multiplexed electronics system functions as a preventive maintenance and diagnostics tool.

Simple serviceWith Volvo, service and maintenance are simple matters. All service points are easily reached and, by the component sharing within the Volvo family, your spare part logistics are simplified.

You also benefit from our extensive service network, which we partly share with Volvo Trucks. There are also hundreds of specialised Bus Service Centers, providing competence, tools and parts for virtually all of your needs.
